Selecting a Connection Method
You can connect to your printer directly from your computer using a USB cable or Wi-Fi Direct, or over a
wireless network using WPS. A USB connection is a direct connection and is the easiest to set up. A
wireless connection is used for networking. If you are using a network connection, it is important to
understand how your computer is connected to the network. For details, see About TCP/IP and IP
Addresses on page 38.
Note: Hardware and cabling requirements vary for the different connection methods. Routers, network
hubs, network switches, and modems are not included with your printer and must be purchased
separately.
• Wireless Network: If your computer includes a wireless router or wireless access point, you can
connect the printer to the network with a wireless connection. A wireless network connection
provides the same access and services as a wired connection provides. A wireless network
connection is typically faster than USB and allows direct access to the setting of the printer using
CentreWare Internet Services.
• USB: If you connect the printer to one computer and do not have a network, you can use a USB
connection.
Note: A USB connection does not provide access to CentreWare Internet Services.
• Wi-Fi Direct: You can connect to the printer with a Wi-Fi mobile device using Wi-Fi Direct. Xerox
recommends that only one user at a time accesses the printer using Wi-Fi Direct.
